Single Payer is actually a very simple, clear method to streamline healthcare payments for people. Learn what it is and is not, from MD's practicing in the trenches every day. This event is part of President Obama's nationwide Health Promotion program.

Jo Olson, MD-- One of the wittiest, smartest, most lucid proponents of Single Payer will give you language you can use to describe this form of healthcare financing.

She's Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at USC with a full time practice in Adolescent Medicine at Children's Hospital Los Angeles. A grassroots activist, her primary focus is implementation of a single payer healthcare program for all Californians. She is past Co-Chair of the Progressive Caucus of the California Democratic Party and a delegate for the 42nd AD.

Steve Tarzynski M.D., M.P.H. is a practicing pediatrician and long time health care reform activist. Board member of California Physicians Alliance (CaPA) the state affiliate of Physicians for a National Health Program (PNHP), a national organization of 16,000+ physicians advocating for a single payer solution to our healthcare crisis.

They'll be joined by Emmy award winning writer, producer, director Don Schroeder, who will screen his NEW VIDEO "California One Care: Full Care, For All, For Less." This video explains why our healthcare system is in crisis and how we can solve it.

Single Payer is a comprehensive health care system that will save money for families, businesses and government. Don is co-founder of the SFV chapter of Health Care for All California and the Co-Chair of the California One-Care Campaign.
